Description

Bullying tips are commonly triaged in Anonymous Reporting Systems (ARS). Because of their prevalence, it’s essential that school staff are prepared to respond to bullying tips and address root causes. 

In the second of two panel discussions, experts will share upstream practices that will help schools reduce instances of bullying. Additionally, panelists will discuss best practices for involving school staff and broaching conversations with students. By the end of the webinar, attendees will leave with examples of tangible bullying responses and clear ways to act on ARS tips.

Audience

Anonymous reporting teams and their partners, or those already familiar with ARS
